Playgrounds & Lollipops - Old Favorites

We celebrated a dear friend's birthday last night and this is what I wore. We went on their duffy and I could have very easily dressed it much more down than this, but I needed to put on some heels and gold jewelry and lift my mood a bit, because it's been a bit of a tough week. This outfit did just that. The old me, pre-Project 2011 would opt for some retail therapy when feeling blue, but I stopped myself and I was proud. I almost bought a very nautical-esque shirt yesterday but I remembered this cardigan and how much I love it so wore this instead. Navy stripes definitely counts as nautical right?

Thanks for reading guys. It's nice having this space where I can just say hi, say I'm feeling good or I'm feeling blue. I love my family and my friends and they are the best support system in the world, but there's just something very different and therapeutic about releasing feelings in this way. I really and truly appreciate those of you that read, whether you leave a comment or not :)

Happy Thursday. It's a busy day ahead for us, but in the middle we're going to the beach so it should be all good.
